    NetCause: Counterfactual Learning for Root Cause Analysis in Large-Scale Networks

    Fabien Chraim, Jian Zhang, Dominik Janzing, Xiang Song, Christos Faloutsos, John Evans

    cs.NI · cs.LG

    Can a learned model capture how faults propagate through a large-scale network and use this knowledge to causally attribute customer impact to its underlying root cause? Existing root cause analysis techniques often rely on static rules, correlation heuristics, or topology-local reasoning, which struggle to generalize in dynamic environments where faults propagate across complex physical and logical dependencies. We present NetCause, a...

    Graphical Causal Reasoning for Root Cause Analysis in Cloud Networks

    Fabien Chraim, Dominik Janzing, John Evans

    cs.NI · cs.LG

    Cloud-computing relies on large-scale networks which are inherently complex systems. In this paper, we present a novel approach to root cause analysis (RCA) of cloud network incidents, leveraging graph-based causal discovery techniques. Our method addresses the limitations of rule-based automation by introducing a spatiotemporal grouping strategy and an automation ontology to reduce the dimensionality of the problem. We construct a causal...

    ScaleAcross: Designing Multi-Data-Center Infrastructure for Geo-Distributed AI Training

    Naved Inam, Aryan Alpesh Bhavsar, Masabattula Teja Nikhil, Sidharth Sharma

    cs.NI · cs.DC · cs.ET

    The rapid growth of AI models and increasing data sovereignty requirements are driving the transition toward geo-distributed AI training across multiple data centers. Such deployments introduce system-level challenges arising from synchronization-intensive communication, cross-site data exchange, and wide-area latency constraints. This paper investigates EVPN--VXLAN as an infrastructure foundation for geo-distributed AI training environments...
